LGN2G101MELZ25

The LGN2G101MELZ25 is a radial, snap‑in aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general‑purpose power applications. It delivers 100 µF capacitance at a 400 V rated voltage in a compact snap‑in can optimized for robust mounting and serviceability.

Built for elevated operating environments, this part is specified for continuous operation up to 105°C with endurance testing that withstands rated ripple current for 3000 hours at 105°C. It is RoHS compliant and intended where high‑voltage smoothing, filtering and energy‑storage are required in a smaller case footprint.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage — 100 µF nominal capacitance rated at 400 V for high‑voltage DC applications.
• High Temperature Endurance — Specified to endure 3000 hours at 105°C with D.C. bias plus rated ripple current applied; meets series endurance criteria after recovery to 20°C.
• Snap‑In Radial Can Package — Snap‑in terminal type (radial, can) for secure chassis or PCB mounting and straightforward assembly.
• Compact Size — Smaller‑sized case (one rank smaller than LGU series) with dimensions L: 2.5 × D: 2.2 cm and maximum seated height of 2.5 cm, enabling space‑constrained designs.
• Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 680 mA at 120 Hz and 972.4 mA at 100 kHz, supporting applications with continuous AC ripple stress.
• Operating Range and Polarization — Polarized capacitor with an operating temperature range of −25°C to +105°C and capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Environmental Compliance — Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General‑purpose high‑voltage DC filtering — Provides smoothing and decoupling in circuits requiring 400 V capability and 100 µF capacitance.
• Power conversion equipment — Supports DC link and bulk filtering roles where rated ripple current endurance at elevated temperatures is important.
• Energy storage and smoothing in compact assemblies — Snap‑in can and reduced case size enable installation in space‑limited power modules and assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• Proven high‑temperature endurance: 3000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple current demonstrates long‑term stability for elevated operating conditions.
• Compact, space‑efficient form factor: One rank smaller case than LGU series provides equivalent function in a reduced footprint for tighter designs.
• Reliable mounting: Snap‑in terminals provide robust mechanical anchoring for chassis‑ or board‑mounted power components.
• High ripple handling: Specified ripple current at both low (120 Hz) and high (100 kHz) frequencies supports a range of switching and line conditions.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity supports designs targeting environmental compliance requirements.
